Did the prediction match what actually happened?

Games like BLOOD RITE

A typical game among these

≈ 152k–536k copies

≈ $944k–$3.5M after Steam's cut

from ~6k reviews

Only the top fifth of 2019's Steam releases earned $34k or more before Steam's cut, so plan for that or less.

All 8 of the similar games are hits.

Best case: Minion Masters at ≈ 1.9M–3.1M copies. It is a breakout hit, far above a typical game.

What their first month looked like
About half the games that made it here had over 3k reviews in their first month; the range was 1k to 11k.
The genre you'd be entering
These games
The similar games share Tower Defense (5 of 8) and Auto Battler (4 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with Trading Card Game + Turn-Based Tactics. The breakout hits carry PvE + Trading Card Game + Stylized; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped
The similar games span 2018 to 2025, and 3 of the 8 shipped in the last two years.
How these numbers were worked out

A hit here: 1,000+ reviews, roughly $150k+ before Steam's cut (a standard indie benchmark).

Copies come from each game's reviews times a sales-per-review rate that falls with release age, from about 31 for the most recent game here to about 38 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
